On this site you will find information about Ken's different bands as well as samples of his music, photos, album information and performance news.
Ken manages Melbourne's Big Band, The Moovin' and Groovin' Orchestra, which was formed in 1990.. He also has two other working bands in Melbourne, Spring and Casanova, as well as playing in many different combos for all types of gigs - weddings, parties, anything.
Ken will be playing two gigs in Tasmania. One at Stage Door on Friday 39th July, and one at The Crescent Hotel on Sunday 1st August. Visit the Gigs Page for more information.
Spring had a great gig on the 15/4 at BMW Edge when they were the "house band" for the Bell Awards. They played lots of great jazz themes to "walk" the sponsors and prizewinners up to the stage. Read all about it on the Gig page.
Ken is writing some new music for the big band as well as for a trio of bass, drums and sax.
Also doing a couple of arrangements for the classic Birth of the Cool line-up.
He's organising some encounters, the first will be announced soon and will be a sax duel with Paul Williamson in the other corner of the ring..
Ken is very proud to have recieved the APRA MUSIC AWARD - Jazz Work of 2008 for "Eucalypso" composed by Ken, and featured on the Moovin' & Groovin' Orchestra's album Zoo Music.
